Wagon rides, bird walks, biking tour, prescribed burn demonstation, music and much more at Tall Timbers Open House, a fundraiser for The Wade Tract!!

The Wade Tract in Thomas County, GA, is one of the best, and probably the best maintained and the best researched, of our native longleaf pine ecosystem that used to cover 60% of the Southeastern Coastal Plain, from Virginia to Texas. Now there is only about 2% left and only a few thousand acres of old growth forest. For more info on the Wade Tract, go to www.talltimbers.org/wadetr. Please join in supporting the Wade Tract at the following open house and concert at Tall Timbers, who, under the direction of Jim Cox (also one of the musicians), manage and research this magnificent forest. What a wonderful way to spend the day with the whole family or a bunch of friends!

More than 4 hours of great fun and music supporting one of the last old-growth pine forests left in North America

The concert takes place on the front lawn of Tall Timbers Research Station and Land Conservancy. Bring blankets, lawn chairs, coolers, sunscreen and hats and enjoy the beautiful view overlooking Lake Iamonia. The best adorned table and picnic spread win a special prize.
